== '''Cultural navigation''' ==
There is one special title used broadly in today‘s Chinese business world，which is “总 zǒng” In this content “总 zǒng” means “chief” or “head”. It is a short form for general manager, chief director, CEO, CFO, president of a company, chairman of the board, etc. It is used right after one´s last name. Sometimes, although the person is only in charge of a very small section in the company, he\she would probably still be happy if you address him\her with the title of “总 zǒng” .
